Nikita Asher
Nikita has built significant experience advising a broad range of clients, including developers,
investors, promoters, and registered providers, on their development transactions.
She works on all aspects of residential and mixed-use schemes, including 'instant' acquisitions and disposals, but has a particular focus on advising large scale strategic land acquisitions, including option and promotion agreements, helping clients to secure sites with the potential to be developed, for housing in the future. She also has experience in advising on complex title issues, vacant possession, planning aspects and sub sales.
Nikita has expertise in the student accommodation sector, having acted on a number of student accommodation deals. She has advised owners and investors on both acquisitions and disposals of fully let student accommodation, in addition to assets that are yet to be built. Her deals involve advising on forward-funding, management agreements and nomination agreements for investors, in addition to advising investment managers on structuring and raising equity capital for joint ventures. She works closely with the real estate finance and banking teams who have extensive experience in acting for lenders and borrowers on the acquisition and development financing of student accommodation schemes.
Nikita adds value to her deals by taking a collaborative and commercial approach and always goes the extra mile to ensure her client's goals are met.
